Green swans and blue skies: Climate change and insolvency risk for financial institutions

International Insolvency Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This lecture in honour of the late Gabriel Moss QC and Ian Fletcher QC examines the challenge of climate‐related financial risk. Prudential regulators and central banks recognize that the systemic nature of climate‐related financial risk makes it an emerging vulnerability relevant to cross‐border insolvency resolution.

Institutional Diversity in Banking and Economic Complexity

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we test whether institutional diversity in banking systems is beneficial to economic complexity, using data for Italian provinces in the period 1998–2017. We compute different indexes that consider diversity from an ownership, institutional, business model and competition point of view and find that higher diversity has a ...

The plant microbiome: From ecological foundations to precision microbial engineering for sustainable agriculture

iMeta, EarlyView.
From ecological principles to precision engineering of plant microbiomes for sustainable agriculture. The plant holobiont integrates diverse microbial niches (including rhizosphere, endosphere, phyllosphere, seed, and aerial‐root mucilagesphere), host genetics (namely M genes), and host metabolites. Furthermore, molecular dialogues, including rhizobial

Carbon VIX, Climate Risk and Financial Stability New Evidence From Developing Countries

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the effects of the carbon VIX and climate risk on financial stability through the banking Z‐score in developing economies. Using the Dynamic Panel Threshold Model of 106 developing countries from 2012 to 2022, the results reveal that both carbon VIX and climate risk exert a significant negative influence on banking ...

Single‐Particle Insights Into the Electronic Structure and Enhanced Stability of CsPbBr3/FAPbBr3 Core/Crown Nanoplatelets at the Nanometer Scale

Small, EarlyView.
Single‐particle‐level investigation using scanning tunneling spectroscopy reveals electronic structure and type‐I band alignment of individual CsPbBr3@FAPbBr3 core‐crown nanoplatelet. Crown passivation suppresses deep trap states by 47% and markedly improves electrical stability under repeated bias sweeps.

Individualization and Purification of Carbon Nanothreads

Small, EarlyView.
Reductive dissolution enables the solution processing of carbon nitride nanothreads into individualized nanothreads that can be assembled into ultrathin films. The resulting interconnected networks exhibit weakly semiconducting behavior, with the conductivity decreasing by only ∼40% from room temperature to 2 K.

Multivalent Bi‐Specific Nanoerythrosomes: A Two‐Birds‐One‐Stone Approach to Combine Homologous and Active Targeting for Effective Thrombolysis

Small, EarlyView.
A multivalent bi‐specific nanoerythrosome (mBiNE@tPA) is developed as a “two‐birds‐one‐stone” platform that simultaneously exploits two principal thrombus components. By integrating erythrocyte membrane‐mediated homologous targeting with cRGD‐based active targeting to activated platelets, mBiNE@tPA achieves enhanced thrombus accumulation, triggered ...

Heavy‐Metal‐Free Colloidal Quantum Dots for Photocatalysis

Small, EarlyView.
Heavy‐metal‐free colloidal quantum dots provide sustainable photocatalytic platforms by combining tunable band structures, strong light absorption, and programmable surfaces/interfaces. This Review highlights how core/shell engineering, alloying, defect regulation, ligand design, and hybrid‐interface construction direct charge separation and ...

Hot Injection Synthesis of Ultrathin Bi2Se3 Nanosheets With Controllable Dimensions

Small Methods, EarlyView.
Graphic of hot‐injection method for synthesizing Bi2Se3${\rm Bi}_2{\rm Se}_3$ nanoplatelets of controlled shape, thickness, and lateral size. The ultra‐thin regime is achievable, which is interesting for studying topological phase transitions. ABSTRACT In this work, a synthesis method for colloidal nanoplatelets (NPLs) of the topological insulator ...
